Thou art the WAY: to Thee alone
From sin and death we flee;
And he who would the Father seek
Must seek Him, Lord, by Thee.
Thou art the TRUTH: Thy Word alone
True wisdom can impart;
Thou only canst inform the mind,
And purify the heart.
Thou art the LIFE: the rending tomb
Proclaims Thy conquering arm,
And those who put their trust in Thee
Nor death nor hell shall harm.
Thou art the way, the Truth, the Life;
Grant us that Way to know,
That Truth to keep, that Life to win,
Which leads to endless day.
---Alternative verses---
Thou art the way, the Truth, the Life;
Grant us that Way to know,
That Truth to keep, that Life to win,
Whose joys eternal flow.
Thou art the way, the Truth, the Life;
Grant us to know that Way;
That Truth to keep, that Life to win,
Which leads to endless day.
